The activity was part of a broader gender-transformative initiative aimed at promoting gender equality, ethical and genderresponsive leadership, and violence-free fisheries. The event used the power of community theater and storytelling to achieve the following: • Raise awareness about GBV (sexual violence/harassment, economic abuse, physical violence) in the fisheries context. • Promote healthy leadership models rooted in empathy, respect and inclusion. • Showcase women’s roles as decision-makers and agents of change. • Empower local women and youths to speak out and lead change. • Strengthen solidarity among men, women, young people and traditional leaders in order to achieve transformative change.PDFCC-BY-NC-4.0climate smart fisheriesReport
